Jungler taking kills? Rage!

I really don't see a problem with the jungler taking kills from the laners if they're ganking, especially if I get an assist..if not, that's fine too, I don't really care, as long as my opponent get's behind in lane, and it helps my jungler out. I don't like when people complain about things like that, it just seems petty. Try to think of the positives about it.

 

Whoever takes the kill is fine with me. I have when people rage at this shit.

 

People rage at League for almost no reason, and it sucks when you're playing jungle because everything's somehow your fault. I've been yelled at five minutes in because my mid laner dove under tower after I backed off on a gank that we couldn't get a kill on.

Whoever secures the kill secures it, doesn't matter who. I've made it a habit to camp lanes I've gotten kills from previously until they snowball and can roam, unless I need to counter-gank another lane. But, that way they get fed, I get fed, and we can take the lead we have and help anyone who's struggling in-lane.

 

I'm not really bothered if someone steals my kill because we all still get assist gold and exp. We still have an advantage over whoever we just killed.

 

Once when I was smurfing on EUW, I was flamed at for taking kills when jungling, they say "OMG GANK", then I reply, "I'm taking a buff before I'm coming to gank", then when they die, they rage. After a few mins, they respawn, I gank, they rage... They blame me for EVERYTHING that happens wrong, I even sometimes let them have kills, they say "WTF" and say I let them live, when I kill them, they say "KS, you're jungle, you're not meant to have kills". This really annoys me sometimes. Luckily in high level play, this doesn't happen.

 

I would always make sure the laner I am ganking tries to get the kill most of the time.

 

It really depends. If you can get the kill as the laner, then you should get it. But if you're not ready for the final killing blow, then the jungler should not have a problem trying to secure it. I mean, if the laner ignited the enemy, then by all means, the jungler should give the kill to the laner.

 

There is no problem with a jungler ganking a lane and taking the kill . It is not kill stealing it is kill securing as if they deliberately hold back the enemy might get away or worse the enemy might kill a team mate. Plus without the gank there would be no kill in the first place so the jungler should benefit also.

 

This. A good jungler harasses the entire map and allows for lanes to get ahead. Often times, I won't get the kill on the gank, but I'll still force the opponent to back. Doesn't give the massive gold lead to the laner, but that sort of time often allows a lane to get ahead a bit or catch up in CS if they needed it.

I don't think a jungler should ACTIVELY look to KS, but a few here and there shouldn't be any problem, especially if helps snowball the lane.

 

As a jungle main I often made the mistake of actively trying to give my laners a kill, ending up with the kill actually running away. Happened to me a lot when I was gold and ever since I just decided to take the kills and snowball hard enough to carry the team. It's how I got to diamond and I think I will keep doing it. Laners get enough of an advantage if they manipulate the lane well (push/freeze) after the gank happens.

 

Indeed true! When you accidentally steal a kill they won't stop blaming you. This also will affect their gameplay because they chat often and don't get their heads in the game. But don't get me wrong, the ADC should get the kills but there are instances in the game wherein you should decide for yourself and take the kill.

 

Junglers aren't meant to take Top/Mid/Bot lane's kills because they don't have any other farm and level up alternatives beside minions. In jungle, you have lizard, golem, wolves, wraiths which do your gold and level up, and it would be absolutely unfair to take others' gold deliberately. If it's out of mistake and if there's no other way to have that kill unless the jungler can do it, then others shouldn't flame and instead say "gj". But if it's the other way around, I can understand the flame.

 

It depends on me. Usually I am pretty greedy and I would like the have the kill when the jg helps on my lane. However, I think ad champion should have the priority to have to kill because they are the one who can always carry in the game. Therefore, I guess feeding the jungler is a way to win the game too!!

 

I love ganking and taking kills when I use a jungler champ. I don't care what my team will say, because I know I also have to be stronger so we can win.
